Annnnndddd I decided to give my RamAir intake the golden tape treatment. All small mods matter 
Before:
The intake pipe is huge and very well made. The turbo elbow is made to the same standard and fitment is 100%
Work in progress
The back of the heatshield has been treated
The turbo elbow
The intake pipe being treated
In the bottom right corner you can see the custom bracket for the V-band that RamAir uses, a simple solution that works well

And I repurposed the OE black wheels as my winter wheels. Dutch winters have become mild over the years, so I decided to fit allseason tyres instead of pure winter tyres. There is more rain than snow due to the climate changing.
I went tyre shopping with a budget, but I didn't want to compromise too much and end up with the ultra cheap tyres like Landsail, Tomket etc etc. I ended up giving Maxxis Premitra All Season AP3 a try, which have a thread pattern comparable to the Michelin Crossclimate tyres.
Keep in mind, that in wet/winter conditions I always drive carefully. With that in mind: they hold up nicely, even with 380bhp (in the dry) . They provide plenty of grip in the wet and give me confidence, which is all I need in autumn/winter conditions. Again, they are not the best tyres, but they hold up well and I would consider them again when the time comes to replace them.
Bought them in 235-35-19

And our little doxie Nelson (he will be 15 this year!)
I bought these tyres a year ago, so they were very fresh
The ST has enough space for 4x 19" wheels and the 4x tyres
And a couple days later, I picked them up again from the local garage
